How to prepare it:

Start with the preparation of the ricotta-spinach sauce. Cut the spinach into smaller pieces. Place them in a bowl for your mixer or food processor. Add the ricotta and some pepper and mix till you have a smooth green sauce.

Once the sauce is ready, you can start poaching the fish. Place a deep baking pan on the stove, add the fish broth and bring the broth to a boiling point.
